On paper, this should be the quintessential holiday AND Hallmark movie: Mean Girls' Lacey Chabert runs out of her family's toaster strudel savings and has to move back to Idaho, where she meets sentient mashed potato and former high school classmate Danny (Hallmark mainstay Brennan Elliot), who happens to be the music teacher at her daughter's new school. 

Meanwhile her wacky aunt Sara (Hocus Pocus' Kathy Najimy) is valiantly casting spells and hexes to maintain the stability of a reality where Mariah Carey (Glitter, which we can't believe we didn't mention once) is the star and director of a Christmas movie where nobody sings or even hums "All I Want for Christmas Is You." It’s an appropriately bizarre note to end our first season on, and our special guest Nicole Slipp (aka "Dr. Slipp") tries to help us make sense of it all.
